Calibrating the Treadmill

Includes Keys, Ironman, Alliance, Milestone, Encore, HealthTrainer, some Smooth models, some CardioZone models, Galyans, and several other brands.

Make sure the safety key is in place on or in the console and make sure the treadmill is unplugged from the wall. Calibration is required when replacing any major electrical part.

  1. Locate the reset hole on the underside of the console back. Keys suggested you use pencil eraser end on the switch but if you have a Q-tip or plastic to do this, it is better since there is a tiny chance you could short out electronics if the metal part of the eraser band connects two circuits.
  2. Plug the treadmill end and use your plastic piece to hit the reset switch in the reset hole.
  3. If CL11 appears in the time window, you have their current software. If nothing appears, you have the older software.

  1. 1. Use the plastic to hit the reset one more time. CL21 should appear.
